About Black History Month
February is Black History Month, honoring the history and achievements of African Americans. It grew from Negro History Week, started by the historian Carter G. Woodson in 1926, and every president since 1976 has recognized it.

How this count works, and questions
How this count works
Black History Month runs through February, from February 1 to the month's last day.
Counts to February 1, the start of Black History Month in the United States. Other countries may use a different month.

Questions about this countdown
Does the count include today?
No. The count leaves out today and includes Black History Month itself. The day before, it shows 1 day. On Black History Month, it shows 0 days.
Which time zone does the count use?
Your device's time zone, named on the Today line at the top of the page. Choose another time zone in the form to count to midnight there instead.
Why might another countdown show a different number?
Some countdowns also count today, or count full 24-hour periods. This page counts calendar dates. The clock under the answer shows the exact time left until midnight at the start of Black History Month.
Is Black History Month a day off?
No. Black History Month is a month-long observance. It is not one of the legal public holidays listed in federal law (5 U.S.C. 6103), so it is not a federal day off. States, schools and employers set their own schedules.
